Is Steve Smith the best since Bradman?

The first Test of the 2019 Ashes series is in its final day, with Australia looking to close out a well deserved win.

Session 1 on Day 5 has seen the Aussies take control, with highly tactical and intelligent cricket capturing 4 wickets in the session. Siddle looked threatening, and kept the English guessing, and Nathan Lyons has captured the wickets. 6 wickets to go with 2 sessions left to play, and the test is the Aussies for the taking.

Is Smith the Best since Bradman?

I think he is getting up there in the list of all time greats. Tendulkar I would say would be who I would consider the best batsman of the modern era, with Ricky Ponting and Brian Lara up there as well. Smith I believe will enter this list of greats, and potentially surpass the achievements of these superstars of the sport.

Who do you think is the best batsman since Bradman?

Steve is one of the best for sure and maybe the best currently. But I feel it's Sachin ( also dravid in tests) who are the best of all time after Bradman.

I think Sachin had the most natural talent of all. He was always so good to watch. Still remember this performance in Sydney in 2004:

True. He was constantly good throughout his career and across all platforms. Kohli might come near to him in achievements but not in grace and techniques.
